To the editor:

Hello, I am a seventh grader by the name of Matthew Geary from DePaolo Middle School, responding to Kristen Gortham.

I have been into politics for about a year now, and I am a Republican. I believe it is beneficial that Councilor Chris Palmieri was kicked off the Apple Harvest Festival Committee. Ten years is a long time to even be on a committee, let alone two years co-chairing Lombardi.

Now, don’t get me wrong, Chris is a very good vice principal, but everyone deserves a chance at making changes to the Harvest. Opening new ideas to the festival may make it not just great, but amazing.
